Independent Banker - March 2023 - 62

Blankenship agrees: " Terry has an incredibly
huge heart and takes the time to genuinely care
about her friends and what is important in their
life, whether it be children, pets or hobbies. She
has an incredible memory. Because she has the
ability to recall names and events, she has an
uncanny, sincere ability to make each person she
knows feel special. "
Those ties to the people in the community may
be why, as Jorde transitions into retirement, her
first plans are to use her newfound free time to
travel and visit with friends.

" I have had only one speed during my career.
So, now it might be nice to slow down and see
the scenery along the way, " she says. " We have
so many friends in community banking whom
we've come to be very close to over the years, so
I can really see us driving around the country
from time to time and stopping in and spending
a few days, really having time to nurture
those relationships. "
Jorde will also prioritize spending more time
with her three children and three
grandchildren, who all have moved
to the D.C. area.
" It's so fun to watch Terry talk
about her kids and grandkids and
light up as she talks about them, "
says Romero Rainey. " The time she
spends with the grandkids, getting
on the floor and playing with them,
that is a core part of who she is. "
" I've always enjoyed a lot of
laughter and good times with
Terry and Mike, and I've enjoyed
watching their interaction with
their three kids, " says Leighty. " It
had to be hard to balance all of the
demands at the level she is at in
her professional career, but I saw
what a good mom and grandmother she is, and
she's got it all. She's got balance. "
As far as family goes, Jorde says retirement
presents a new path of opportunity.
" I told my husband we're going to have to
develop a strategic plan to see what retirement
looks like, and he kind of rolled his eyes, " she
jokes. " It's a bit surreal, when you think about
going through life, and saying, 'Someday I'll
retire, and I'll have all this extra time.' But I am
looking forward to spending time with family and
friends and just exploring what else is out there. "
Without a doubt, Jorde will be missed in the
day-to-day workings of ICBA, but her legacy,
